Defending Champions.
Sorry for the late update, everyone,
But,
We won the Maui tournament!
We flew out to Maui on Oct 2nd and competed
on Oct 3rd, at Baldwin High School.
There, 16 teams (robots) were going head to head in
the first robotics competition for the Hawaii
students.
Our team entered 3 robots, A, B and C.
Our drivers? A, Albert Dayag. B, Brendan Scott,
and C, Jeremy Huff.
Here's some status updates for you :)
Schools!:
Some of the schools competing included,
Maui High, Iao, Lahainaluna, and Kalani which was the
only other team (apart from us) that came from Oahu.
-I think there were others, but I'm sorry, I don't
know their names >____< Final Ranking & Match record!:
2467A - Albert, rank 3 // 4 wins, 1 loss.
2467B - Brendan, rank 2 // undefeated.
2467C - Jeremy, rank 5 // 3 wins, 2 loss.
Double Elimination Rounds/Playoffs/Finals!:
2467B (rank 2) and 2443A (Maui High, also undefeated & rank 1) allianced through the "playoff" rounds. Together, they got to the finals, undefeated. 2467A (rank 3) and 2467C (rank 5), the two lower ranked Sabertron teams, allianced and also went through to the final rounds. Going head to head in a "best, 2 out of 3" match, 2467A and 2467C finally defeated the undefeated teams and were announced TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS with a score of 131 to 27.
Awards and Recognition!:
- One of two Oahu teams.
- 2467A, Tournament Champion.
- 2467C, Tournament Champion.
- 2467B, EXCELLENCE AWARD!
*Although 2467B was finally defeated by its own team mates, it was awarded the Exellence Award, giving us our 3rd official spot to the 2010 VEX Robotics World Championships :)
So in my conclusion?
Well, this will be our 3rd year competing in Worlds. We've competed at the World Championships every year, since we've been a team (3 years, obviously). Once again, like last year, we've landed THREE spots. Hopefully, we can get more ;)
This is also our second year competing in Maui! And like my title, we are so far, the defending champions of the Maui VEX Robotics Tournament. Last year, we also won as tournament champions, first place.
To My Team:
I'm extremely overwhelmed at how amazing all of you were during the tournament. EVERYONE was on the field, and it was just an exciting thing to see. I know I may not tell you guys often, but I really am proud of all of your hard work. The Drivers, the coaches, the back up drivers, our programmer, the media crew, our scouts, our mascot, even our team mates that were chosen to referee the tournament -- all of you did a wonderful job, and I'm glad your my team. I'm sure we made our teachers very proud that weekend :)
Sincerely,
Ashleigh Castillo, team captain, 2467A coach.
